    Overall using the Seagate external hard drive was simple. I did however buy this device to use with both my Macbook Pro and HP computers at my office. I am still having trouble seeing it on the latter. Once I have perfected how to use it with both systems this product will definitely get 5 stars. Lightweight, ultraportable, compact yet powerful storage capacity.

    As I continue to store more music and movies on digits I need more space. This was great deal, as Bestbuy priced matched another store.

    I have used Seagate products for a few years now ever since I made the switch from PC to Mac. I use Seagate Backup Drives with Time Machine and it works great. Highly recommended and the price is easy on the wallet.

    It has 2 TB of storage and works well. My only objection is the proprietary cable, as it may be a problem if it breaks (my other, older, drive with this cable has NOT had a problem). The cable is on the short side.

    The Seagate portable hard drive was an excellent choice , extremely easy to use right out of the box, intuitive for us older computer users. With a huge amount of storage size was a great value for the price.

    My son used this Seagate 2TB hard drive to replace the one that came in his PS4. He then took the original hard drive that was in the PS4 and plugged it up to the Xbox One since it was almost out of space too.

    I have several Seagate external drives and they have all performed at the highest level. One did fail after a number of years, but that happens. This one is a redundant drive for yet another backup for photographs.
